[jane1820]

part of my eng assignment is to write 3 drafts and one of the drafts require us to write a narrative inspired by a poem
eg the story Easter 2016 was inspired by the poem Easter 1916

anyways im struggling to find a poem i actually like that is easy and easy to create a story based off
so far i have narrowed down my poem searching to two: Fire and Ice (my narrative will be about human desires) and The Road Not Taken (my narrative will be about choices)

im opened to literally any suggestions but please consider the following:
- short (maximum 30-35 lines)
- easy to understand - my poem comprehension skills are so basic i wouldnt even have understood Fire and Ice if i didnt google it
- theme not too generic i want it to be specific in a while or another

thank you!
